I got a Corsair SPEC-02 case for a build I'm doing this Christmas.

The case can hold up to six fans:

I'll have two air fans, one for intake one for exhaust, and another fan blowing into the case through the radiator of an H60. Something that will look like this:

I'm a beginning builder, this being my first. My only question is whether this is a good design for airflow?

My guess is that the air will come in through the bottom right intake and make its way through the case, exiting out the top along with the radiator's hot air.

I don't know whether this will work, and I don't want to buy more fans than provided (I will if I have to).

 

Is this plan a good idea?

well dust is gonna suck in from the back so I would have top suck in and front suck in, and back blow out.

I considered this, but heat rises and I'd rather use that to my advantage. I'm already having two intakes, how would this help?

The case is so small and with any decent amount of airflow, the whole heat raises thing wont matter.

 

Id put two on the front and the rad as the exhaust. Until more fans are purchased, if necessary.
